建立應用程式 - 使用 MIT App Inventor 進行編碼 1 - 初學者

This project-based learning course introduces computer science skills that students can apply cross-curricula.  Problem solving, designing, and organizing are just a few of the many skills that will be reinforced throughout the three weeks.  During each session students will be provided with an engaging, live mini-lesson that teaches and/or reviews concepts needed to complete the weekly coding project.  The teacher will use google slides, along with other interactive platforms to increase student participation.  Once the teacher is confident that the students have mastered the skills needed for the weekly project, students will be provided with time to work.  Students will complete the coding assignment on MIT App Inventor, a block-based coding platform ideal for novice computer scientists.  For best outcomes, students will use a second device to test their projects.  Each project will be accompanied by a lab support sheet, and each session will wrap up with a discussion where students can ask questions about their projects and offer help to one another.  Project extensions and other extension activities will be available for early finishers.  This course offers a safe-space for students to learn fundamental computer science skills, interact with others who have similar interests, and have fun, all at the same time!

Week 1 Objectives:
1.  Log in and out, and create, save, and retrieve projects in the MIT App Inventor programming environment.
